Definitions

  • This invention relates to a graphical user interface for searches.
  • a scroll bar is displayed along one edge of the window. If information such as images and text cannot all be displayed in the window, scrolling is performed by dragging a slider along the scroll bar so that information that could not be displayed in the window will be displayed in the window.
  • scroll bar is utilized in an image database that displays images, which have been retrieved as the result of a search, in the form of a list of arrayed thumbnail images.
  • the scroll bar is provided with graduations and the scope of a search (which becomes a search condition) is specified in accordance with the position of the slider along the scroll bar.
  • an object of the present invention is to improve operability.
  • a graphical user interface for searches comprising a first display controller (first display control means) for controlling a display device so as to display, on a display screen, a coordinate axis along which graduations have been formed, an area that displays results of a search of information of interest that falls within a search range set in conformity with the graduations, and a manipulator located at a reference position on the coordinate axis; a move-command device (move-command means) for applying a horizontal- or vertical-direction move command to the manipulator; and a second display controller (second display control means) for controlling display of the coordinate axis in such a manner that scale of the graduations is changed in response to application of either one of the horizontal- and vertical-direction move commands from the move-command device to the manipulator, and in such a manner that values of the graduations are changed in response to application of the other one of the horizontal- and vertical-direction move commands from the move-command device to the manipulator.
  • first display controller first display control means
  • a display device for controlling
  • a method of controlling the above-described graphical user interface for searches also is provided. Specifically, the method comprises the steps of displaying, on a display screen, a coordinate axis along which graduations have been formed, an area that displays results of a search of information of interest that falls within a search range set in accordance with the graduations, and a manipulator located at a reference position on the coordinate axis; and controlling display of the coordinate axis in such a manner that scale of the graduations is changed in response to application of either one of the horizontal- and vertical-direction move commands to the manipulator, and in such a manner that values of the graduations are changed in response to application of the other one of the horizontal- and vertical-direction move commands to the manipulator.
  • the coordinate axis along which the graduations are formed, the area for displaying search results and the manipulator are displayed on the display screen of a display device. If a command for moving the manipulator in either the horizontal or vertical direction is applied to the manipulator, the scale of the graduations changes. If a command for moving the manipulator in the other of the horizontal and vertical directions is applied to the manipulator, the values of the graduations change (without a change in the scale of the graduations). By applying the horizontal- and vertical-move commands to move the manipulator horizontally and vertically, both the scale of the graduations and the values of the graduations can be changed. This improves operability.
  • the search range may be predetermined or may be changeable by the user. If the search is a search of an image database, then the search results may be such that thumbnail images are displayed in the search-result display area. Alternatively, names of images files may be displayed in the search-result display area.
  • the manipulator may be such that it moves away from the reference position in accordance with the move command provided by the move-command device.
  • the second display controller would control the display of the coordinate axis in such a manner that the scale of the graduations and values of the graduations change in accordance with distance of the manipulator from the reference position.
  • the graphical user interface may further comprise a third display controller (third display control means) for controlling display in the search-result display area so as to display results of the search of information of interest that falls within the search range after display of the coordinate axis is controlled by the second display control device.
  • a third display controller third display control means for controlling display in the search-result display area so as to display results of the search of information of interest that falls within the search range after display of the coordinate axis is controlled by the second display control device.

If, when the horizontal axis 10 is indicating month of photography as depicted in FIG. 2 , the manipulator 13 is dragged upward and a search command is applied from the input unit 3 with the manipulator 13 having thus been dragged upward, then the graduations 11 on the horizontal axis 10 come to indicate day of photography (days of photography in August, 2000).

Images within the search range (1994 to 2006) 16 defined by the graduations 11 of enlarged scale are searched for in the image database 4 , and thumbnail images 40 corresponding to the images retrieved by the search are displayed in the search-result display area 30 .
